Some people have watch dogs, some people have alarm systems, but we have the best home protector of all...a praying mantis! Trevor told me last night that a praying mantis likes to live in my mom's wreath that hangs on the front door. I've never seen it so I didn't think too much of it until this morning when I was trying to lock the front door (it sticks sometimes). I was in a hurry so I decided I would just go back inside and leave through the garage...when out of nowhere I feel something jump on my chest. At first I thought it was a leaf from the wreath and then it moved! I freaked and threw it on the ground. I thought I hurt him, but I came home from work today to this...
Thankfully he is fine and protecting our home like a champ! I feel much safer knowing he is here being our silent-but-deadly guard and keeping predators away.
BEWARE!!!

That would be enough to keep me away from ANYTHING! Those things are CREEPY!
Oh my gosh...I would have had a "come apart" if he would have jumped on me! I'm happy to know you now have a pet, though. That's one step closer to grandchildren!
Glad you found us...it will be a fun way to stay in touch!
